Alexander Roach is technically a player for the Buffalo Stampede, although he has yet to do much of anything in his career to this point. Roach couldn't get his paperwork filled out in time for the SMJHL draft, showing just how unprepared he was for the league. He was drafted 55th overall by the Stampede, and clearly was an afterthought to most of the league. In season 55 when the junior league expanded, he was left exposed by his juniors team, the Maine Timber, and the Timber were likely thrilled to have that dead weight removed from their roster. Roach was somehow awarded the Brandon Holmes trophy as the best defensive forward, but all he did was stand in front of a bunch of slap shots, many people have said the award was undeserved. He does have a challenge cup to his name, although it has a huge asterisk next to it, since he did not play a single game for that cup winning roster. Since his call up to the SHL, the Stampede are 0-3 in the finals.
